RS6 Avant Tyre Wear

Post by mcfreedom » Thu Oct 08, 2009 11:58 am

I've got a 10,000 mile RS6 Avant which was collected yesterday for a service.

Four hours after collection I was called to tell me that all the tyres have extremely uneven tyre wear.
Down to the wire on the outer edges and 4mm of tread in the centre on the front two tyres, and 2mm on the outer edges and 4mm in the centre of the rears!!

Has anyone else had this problem, or have any idea what the solution is as Bradford Audi have no clue
